I was writing out this tune earlier, before my house fire. I have an extra pull on my C pedal. It pulls both E strings up a 2nd. If you don't have this pull on your guitar, you MUST add it. There's a lot of way cool stuff you can do with it. Silver Bells is just a simple example.

Just emailed you the tef.
My C pedal only raises my 4th string E.
I was thinking about doing the same with the 8th but I have enough problems trying to learn the changes and play this contraption as it is now. Ha HA. But seriously I may add this at a later point in time.
